I think, like a lot of talented people that died young, he could have been great or lost what made him special. I think most of the people that have died that young and talented get eleveated to legend status because of the possiblity of what they could have done instead of what they actually did. I think some people get very overrated because of this though.


I agree cfl2005. He was great but who knows how great he would remain. I am no huge elvis fan, but he was on a path of self destruction and he died young. Imagine how sad he would have been in his 50s!!

I suspect that if he lived a long life he would have the career of Jimmy Page. He is not at all relevant anymore and hasn't been for a while, but he certainly left his mark and will be a legend for a long time to come.

It would have been Hendrix & Puff Daddy doing a rap version of purple haze

He may have had to endure the hideous pain of being passe, out of style and bereft of new material, with failed hearing and liver and possibly brain damage.

Playing opening for Hannah Montana.

It would be exactly like it is today, except Jimi would be alive still.
